I have a really cool little project to share with today, it's something I've had in the back of my head for a while and today I decided to sit down and just feel it out.
There is pretty much nothing about my old computers on my site but I have just purchased another old system and unboxed it yesterday and I love it. I bought an old Compaq Deskpro from eBay for $140. At one point in my life I would have never paid that much for an obsolete e-waste machine but things change. I'm actually really happy with it and glad I decided to pull the trigger its passed my expectations so far but there are still things I want to add to it.
Anyways for the past 4 hours I've been sitting criss-cross on my floor making the Deskpro its own little personal page in Microsoft Publisher 97, ON the Deskpro. I've had the idea to use era correct software to make each computer that I have it's own page. (Like using different versions of Publisher, FrontPage, Dreamweaver, Netscape or Mozilla. Whatever I think represents the system well.) I definitely want to have a seperate page or section for showing my collection in a more "scientific" way but I get excited about doing it this way.
Thats all I really have to add to the main site right now but please check it out the page on the Deskpro, I had fun making it and I'm proud of it.
Check Out The Deskpro!
I will have to go back into publisher and make things bigger for todays monitors but atleast the default size does look exceptionally crisp .
